Untouched color-colour photograph by J. McCombie. This exotic miniature Morning Glory (Convolvulus Tricolor Minor Ensign) from the Mediterranean put on a dazzling show all summer long with lovely 1.5 to 2" trumpet-shaped tricolored blooms of indigo blue, royal blue, purple, lavender, red, rose, pink, or white with a white band and yellow throat. A prolific bloomer with flowers from early summer through fall. It is a bushy, multi-branched plant with dark green foliage that quickly forms low mounds about 12" high. The mounding habit makes it perfect massed in large beds or planted under taller plants. The trailing growth also looks great in large containers and window boxes. Grown as an annual in most zones, it can be treated as a perennial in zones 8 and higher. Easy from seed, these may be direct sown outside in spring or started earlier inside in more northern climates.
